What is Classical Music?

Classical music is a type of music that was written during the period from about 1600 to 1900. It is usually written for an orchestra, which is a group of musicians who play different instruments together.

Classical music can be divided into three main periods:

  • The Baroque period (1600-1750): This period is characterized by its use of complex melodies and rhythms, as well as its use of the harpsichord and organ.
  • The Classical period (1750-1820): This period is characterized by its use of simpler melodies and rhythms, as well as its use of the piano.
  • The Romantic period (1820-1900): This period is characterized by its use of more expressive melodies and rhythms, as well as its use of the orchestra.

Instruments of the Orchestra

The orchestra is made up of four main sections:

  • The strings: These instruments include the violin, viola, cello, and double bass.
  • The woodwinds: These instruments include the flute, clarinet, oboe, and bassoon.
  • The brass: These instruments include the trumpet, trombone, and tuba.
  • The percussion: These instruments include the drums, cymbals, and triangle.

Famous Composers

There are many famous classical composers, but some of the most well-known include:

  • Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750): Bach was a German composer who is considered one of the greatest composers of all time. He wrote music in all genres, including sacred music, concertos, and operas.
  • Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791): Mozart was an Austrian composer who is known for his beautiful melodies and harmonies. He wrote some of the most famous operas ever written, including The Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni.
